Just took a huge amount of photos. Don’t have to save them to get Smeargle.

Edit: hmm forgot that all taken pics are saved. Just cleared 55 pics. :man_facepalming:

I get one last night after a lot of trial and error.

Have been searching for the “lucky” trick and I don’t know if it was really the “Shot with Camera from Inventory” or “the focusing the camera to the floor” :joy:

Looks like Lady Luck is in-charge again on this photobombing thing!

I got counted in the medal a Smeargle which had escaped.
So it’s the Photobomb which counts, not the capture.

Thanks!

I had luck using my TV as background & another good spot was on top of a lamp. My brother was trying desperately during event yesterday while stopped by raids & couldn’t get him to photobomb any of the pics, he sent me a few too.
